Rejected By My Mate

Chapter 17

Azrael still didn't wake up after an hour. Maybe it was the effect of the poison. I sighed and stood up from the bed. I really need blood right now. My vision is slowly turning red. My bloodthirst is getting worse. It made me feel weak. It's getting harder to control, especially if I am so thirsty for blood.

There's a light knock on the door when I tried to twist the doorknob. I opened the door and Layla's worried face greeted me. I gasped a little when she hugged me. I closed my eyes as I tried to control myself, not to suck on Layla's neck.

"Alex, are you okay?" she asked while frowning. Worry is still clear in her eyes. I nodded.

She frowned while staring behind my back. I followed where she's looking, and she fixed her eyes on Azrael, who was still peacefully sleeping in my bed. Layla gasped.

"You brought the jerk?" she said in a sour tone. I frown at Layla.

"Layla, Azrael is my mate. I have no choice but to bring him here with me. He almost died again. Azrael needs me and... I need him too." Layla looks at me in disbelief, and I can't comprehend her expression right now.

She just nodded and never uttered back a word. She turned her back and mumbled, "Come on, Sabrina and the couple are still in the office." She said and walked away.

What happens to Layla? She's not in the mood? I frowned. I barely see Layla getting pissed. Is she pissed with Azrael? Why?

I sighed and followed Layla silently. I can hear Layla's heartbeat and it was beating irregularly. She's really pissed at something. I closed my eyes when my vision turned red again. Layla's scent is not helping and also the human maid's blood is so tempting right now. But Sabrina warned me not to kill her maids because she had a hard time keeping them because sometimes they were afraid of Sabrina and me.

Ugh, I'm really thirsty.

Afterward, we arrived at Sabrina's office. Clinton and Allia were still here. They're talking about me. Sabrina looks at me questioningly. This is the first time that Sabrina didn't see what happened earlier as I read her mind.

"What happened, Alex?" she asked when I sat on the sofa beside her. I let out a sigh.

"Vorges stabbed Azrael, my mate, in his chest... with a silver," I answered while clenching my fist. I really hate what happened earlier. It almost cost my life and Azrael.

They gasped loudly in unison. "You know Vorges?" Sabrina asked nervously. I nodded weakly. I really need blood.

Sabrina looked stunned while looking into my eyes. I know they are dark red now. I sighed.

"You're thirsty..." she mumbled, and I hummed. She turned to Clinton, Allia, and Layla, then spoke, "Alex needs blood, I have to assist her." the three nodded while gulping as they stared into my eyes. Sabrina grabs my wrist as we stand up.

In just a split second, our surroundings changed, and it was dark. I think we were in a small alleyway. My dark red eyes automatically glowed brightly in the dark. Sabrina cursed. "Alex, can you dim your eyes? Someone might see us," she whispered.

I nodded and dimmed my eyes. That took me 20 seconds. Sabrina sighed in relief. "What are we doing here Sabrina?" I asked in confusion.

"We will find a victim to satisfy your bloodthirst. You need to drink human blood, Alex. You're getting weak." I frowned at Sabrina.

"I cannot kill a human, Sabrina!" I protested. Even though human blood was tempting, I still cannot harm them.
